Thinking of You Music Video by Katy Perry
“Thinking of You” is a music video by Katy Perry that, to me, signifies most of all that she has grown up as an artist. She has come a long way from her bubble gum pop roots of “I Kissed a Girl” and “Ur So Gay”. Thinking of You …

Jesus of Suburbia - A Song By Green Day
If I had to quickly sum up the song “Jesus of Suburbia” by Green Day, I would have to say that it is a teen angst anthem surrounding the lives lived by most suburban teens.
The song was featured on the “American Idiot” rock opera album and has spawned a …
Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart by Alicia Keys
As a singer, I’m not very fond of Alicia Keys. I think her voice sounds really weird and it is just not that pretty sounding. But I have to give her some credit because at least her voice sounds natural and doesn’t have any crazy sound effects on it. …

Nine Inch Nails - Getting Smaller (Song)
Getting Smaller, a song by Nine Inch Nails for their record With Teeth, is quite an aggressive song and certainly strikes me as one of Reznor’s better songs, at least for this record at least. Getting Smaller is a pretty straightforward track which wastes no time getting into the …
Cotton Eye Joe - Rednex
Cotton Eye Joe was a popular dance track in the 1990’s by the band called The Rednex, which as their name suggests, they take upon the gimmick of that of a redneck. Country music, hillbilly blues and some classic techno dance beats! What more can a music fan ask …

Munbe Vaa is a fantastic song from Sillendru Oru Kadhal Movie. The music composed by A.R.Rehman. This is one of my favourite songs of A.R.Rehman. Vaali writes the lyrics of this song. The song has very different starting line. Shreya Ghosal and Naresh Iyer …
Weezer - No Other One (Song)

Animal Collective - People (Song)
People is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their 2006 EP of the same name. Taking about a minute to introduce the track, a heavy percussive rhythm enters the song after about a minute in which gives the song a more definitive rhythm and I’m currently liking …

Eagles of Death Metal - Eagles Goth (song)
“Eagles Goth” is the 11th track on “Death by Sexy”. “Eagles Goth” is by far the shortest song on the entire album. What it lacks in length however, it makes up for in style.

The UK’s favourite Indie rockers returned this summer with their fourth studio album, entitled Suck It and See.

The Beatles - Help!

The Beatles - Revolver

Tool - Aenima
I bought Aenima after i had loved Tool’s next album (Lateralus). I found that Aenima is just as good. When Aenima was released Tool was just a promising name in the hard rock genre, this album enstablished the band not only as a great name worldwide, blessed by sales …

Bone Thugs N Harmony Thug World Order CD

Enter Shikari - Take to the Skies (Album)
Not usually my cup of tea this. It’s more a bitter dark and strong coffee that you could stand a spoon up in … I really dislike the taste of coffee.
So it’s not something I would knowingly drink. Or, to cut the waffle (and terrible metaphor) short: It’s not …
Animal Collective - Feels (Album)

Three Imaginary Boys, 1979 Album by The Cure
It is probably not very often to encounter for a band like the Cure to be criticized, or even to not be praised, but I think that some of their albums are not very good, and this one, their 1979 debut Three Imaginary Boys is such a record.
I think …
Song: “Your and Your Hand” by Pink
“Your and Your Hand” by Pink has to be one of the catchiest songs I have heard on the radio in the past few years. At first I thought it was Kelly Clarkson, but realized it was Pink. I should have figured Ms. Clarkson wouldn’t want to ruin …
